What this guide answers

The decision, without the detour

Use ADO for airport and intercity travel while accounting for the first and last mile.

What does the ADO guide cover that route pages do not?

This page explains the mode itself: how to verify stations and schedules, handle terminal connections, and decide when bus travel fits. Route pages apply those tradeoffs to one origin and destination.

What should never be assumed from an old timetable?

Do not assume the departure time, stop, trip duration, or ticket inventory is still current. Check the operator close to travel and keep a backup for the final leg.
